Roman aqueduct built to bridge the Aigualit ravine and convey water from the Sant Josep fountain (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acueductos_de_San_Jos%C3%A9_y_Alcudia). It is preserved complete, used for irrigation until the 1950s (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acueductos_de_San_Jos%C3%A9_y_Alcudia). It alternates semicircular and pointed arches due to repairs over time (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acueductos_de_San_Jos%C3%A9_y_Alcudia). Next to a second medieval aqueduct it moved two hydraulic mills (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acueductos_de_San_Jos%C3%A9_y_Alcudia). It is located on Carretera de Sant Josep, La Vall d'Uixó.
